RE: Extremely Effective Homegrown Insecticide

Thanks for sharing your recipe. I was wondering if this also works on mosquitoes and ticks for personal use on skin? I like to have a rolled tobacco cigarette every once in awhile too so we may to try our hand at tobacco farming next year!

    No problem, thanks for checking the post out.

    I've never used it personally on mosquitoes, but have for gnats with great success, so I would assume that you would get very similar results with this on the mosquitoes as well.

    For use on your own skin, I wouldn't reccomend spraying this directly on yourself due to the high nicotine content, as it may make you feel a little dizzy and/or nauseus.

    I would suggest making a mixture using either citronella or marigolds for use on your own skin, and that should be perfectly safe and yield great results.
